From the Paper:

"Can you imagine a world full of people with the same genetic makeup? That would be the scenario if the technology to clone humans fell in to the wrong hands. Many people, when they think of cloning, think of a mass production of one particular race and morality concerns. This simply is not true. Cloning can be a useful tool in helping people with disabilities or life threatening illnesses. Cloning should continue to take place in today s society only if its results would be used to benefit the human race. In today s society, many people are concerned with the ethics of some of the advances in biological technology. Bio-technology had advanced so much, that ethics are a major concern to scientists and the people that fund their research. They have to make sure that they are not playing God and that their research has some significance to it, but many people wonder if cloning research is really necessary. They think that scientists are performing these cloning experiments just because they have the technology to do so and that they have no significance to them what so ever. This is a common misconception that the average person has. Cloning is being researched today in order to find alternative treatments to diseases that affect certain organs or tissue. Many more people will be willing to accept the concept of cloning and its role in the benefit of the human race if they knew just a little more about the subject."
